Forest Alliance.
Under the protection of the World Tree, this is a pure natural land isolated from the world. It is said that just taking a breath of the fresh air in the Forest Alliance can make you several years younger. Taking a sip of the moon spring water here will make you younger, regardless of any chronic diseases on your body. They can all be cured, and there are also legendary magic spells that were improved based on Zhuoe.
Under the blessing of various mysterious veils, the Forest Alliance is undoubtedly a dreamlike existence that many people regard as a fairyland.
However, what is hidden under these beautiful dreams is as if people can only see the green of the big tree in the sky, but they cannot see the roots extending downward from the big tree, buried deep in the soil, and densely packed like blood vessels.
Alliance of the Old Ones.
Underground "Temple".
Although this place is called a "sacred church" by the "forgotten ones", there is no sacred atmosphere at all. Rather, on the contrary, the underground, which cannot be touched by the sun, brings darkness to this place. Only the corners exude a gloomy atmosphere. The glowing torches have become one of the few sources of light here.
Under the dim firelight, you can see that the space of this underground temple is not only very large, but also very majestic, as if it is an underground ruin left over from a long time ago.
Tall pillars lined up all around, supporting the high dome of the church. Long flags painted with strange patterns hung from the top of the pillars to the ground.
In the center of the church is the round table, where four figures are sitting.
On the ceiling in the center of the round table, there was a flower bone-like sarcoma directly above it. After a period of squirming, the flower bone burst open. Hidden inside the sarcoma was an evil eyeball that was the same as the one on Charlotte's dagger, but it was enlarged. Many times.
The eyeballs were pulled downwards by the drawn flesh and blood, and stopped a few meters away from the round table. They began to replay everything that Charlotte had reported not long ago in front of everyone around the round table through shared vision. After doing all this , the eyeball was pulled back by Huaguduo again, and closed into the sarcoma on the ceiling.
"Hero, should you give me an explanation? You were behind the blood sacrifice in the Sealed Capital, right? Without this blood sacrifice, the empress would never have left the capital, and our plan wouldn't be as good as it is now. Such a risk of exposure!”
One of the four shadows on the round table looked like the one from the demi-human race who spoke first from the outline. When he opened his mouth, he went to question a member of the round table who was diagonally across the corner wearing a gentleman's hat.
The member of the gentleman's hat chuckled lightly, pointed at the table with his finger and said: "Relax Bar, the overall situation of the Dragon Kingdom has been decided. Even if the plan is exposed, the empress will be unable to save the day. Dragon Kingdom's The lifeblood is already under our control, isn’t it?”
"Hmph, don't talk about this as if you have some credit for it. Collecting the lifeblood of the Dragon Kingdom's decline depends on the sacrifice of our demihuman race!"
"Yes, yes, but to be honest, Ba'er, I admire you very much. Just to take revenge on the empress and ruin the country, you did not hesitate to curse the entire demi-human race for hundreds of years. Do you really have that much resentment towards her?" ?"
"Her position should have been mine! How can I be any worse than that brainless woman! Ha...hehe...just because she is a woman...just because she is a woman! Otherwise, it would be her turn to be Disaster!"
The orc shadow was emotional when he said this. The elegant gentleman shadow opposite him, after hearing these words, glanced at the orc's bulging chest and smiled even more.
"So is this why you changed your gender? Don't you still have old feelings for that "Great Emperor"? Are you hoping that... you will become a woman and he will favor you again? "
As soon as these words came out, it seemed that they had completely touched the pain point of the orc shadow. Seeing that the quarrel was about to escalate, fortunately, as the sound of footsteps came, the entire temple fell silent instantly, and the gentleman shadow immediately became excited. With a lot of different emotions in his eyes, he immediately moved over.
because...
I saw several others attending in the form of shadows, but the woman who came out now was wearing a dark green skirt. Her soft blond hair seemed to be shining, and her amber eyes were fascinating, hidden in her hair. The pointed ears on both sides indicate her noble status as an "elf".
Come and try it quickly. 】
"Children, this is not a place for quarrels. I believe that everyone sitting here has their own pain. We are here to help each other, not to reopen each other's scars. Am I right, He Luo?"
"It's...Mother!"
Not only Hero, but the remaining shadows of the round table present also made the same respectful expressions towards the elves, but they may not be as enthusiastic as Hero.
With the appearance of the elves, the environment of the Round Table Council immediately improved a lot.
"Hero, so what is the result of your blood sacrifice test?" The third shadow spoke. He looked very interesting, and he was covered in a cloak.
"It seems completely feasible at the moment. I have basically mastered the technology of creating a "well". However, if I want to devour the Demonic City, I must at least obtain the "ring" level... or even the "abyss" level. I still need time."
"Kong Kai, where is the Machinery Alliance that you are responsible for? I remember that what you executed should be..."Dream", right? "
"It's just the last step."
...
Each of the four figures present corresponded to a country, except for the figure in charge of the Holy Kingdom Scutia who was very gloomy and did not come to attend the meeting.
The final topic returned to the Dragon Kingdom. Baer asked everyone: "Since the empress appears in the south, can I "detonate" it in advance?"
"Don't be so anxious. Let the ceremony be absorbed for a while. Let the puppet minister hold on for a while. He can survive until now with the power we gave him. What's more, I really hope that the empress can really find out. What, you caught the minister in anger and triggered the spell, Baer, instead of you detonating it, don’t you think it would be more interesting to let the empress detonate it herself and destroy her dragon kingdom?”
The orcs were silent in the shadow and quickly nodded in agreement. They had to admit that when it came to revenge, no one among them could compare to Hero.
The round table meeting in the temple did not last long, and soon everyone turned towards the elf who was sitting at the head of the table. He did not speak during their discussion, but just looked at them quietly. After bowing again, they left one by one.
The last one to leave was Hero.
He greedily took a deep look at the host elf several times, as if he wished he could keep the image of "Mother" in his mind forever. After all, if there was no "Mother", they would not be what they are now. They would have been lost in the years. After passing away, it was "Mother" who gave them new life and made them realize how stupid it was to follow the emperor before.
Although the mother was once one of "them", this really highlights the mother's love, which is completely different from the other false "them".
He is willing to give everything for "mother"!
Thinking of this, Hero, no matter how reluctant he was to leave, finally left. He still had many plans to prepare for "Mother".
In the end, only the elf was left in the dim temple.
After watching her "children" leave, she raised a hand. After turning her wrist, a looming mini version of the Forgotten Spirit appeared in her palm.
It was Karl who was summoned by the secret method of the Old Alliance in the sealed city, but now this one is more like an unconscious copy.
Next, a horrifying scene appeared. The supposedly noble elf suddenly leaned forward like a puppet on strings, and then a tearing sound came from her back.
Poof! Poof! Poof!
In the blink of an eye, many blood holes appeared on the elf's smooth back. Then, squirming flesh and blood composed of filth inside, like sludge, gushes out of the elf's open blood holes and then crawls all over the elf's body. The entire elf's body.
Soon after, the appearance of the elf disappeared, replaced by one that could still be seen, using the elf as the body model, but the rear was shrouded by a huge shadow, which emerged from the elf's back...
Dozens of gray-brown tentacles.
The originally fair skin of the elf also turned into dark gray, and dozens of tentacles were wrapped in tender mucus. They waved wildly in the air, exuding extremely terrifying and huge turbid pollution.
Soon, one of the tender tentacles rolled up Karl's mini Forgotten Spirit just now, and then attached it to the elf's lower abdomen. The belly squirmed, and the Forgotten Spirit seemed to be swallowed up, sinking into the elf's body bit by bit. In the flesh and blood, it was finally "eaten" by the elves.
At the same time, behind the elf's tentacles, there was a brand new tender tentacle "breaking out of the ground" and wriggling in the air.
"Yes...that's what it smells like...the stupid children who borrowed my power...now come back to my arms...together with your power..."
After doing all this, the elf's face showed a look of doting satisfaction. She was stroking her belly like a pregnant mother, and following her words, the tentacles behind her seemed to be shaking in response.
"I understand...I understand...I will reunite that person with you soon...I will fulfill your wishes..." The elf stretched out his hand to comfort the tentacles and attached many of them to himself. Rubbing his face, as if listening to their appeal.
"After all... that is the person who has defeated me before... he is my best child..."
"I will suck his blood... fuse his genes... make him a part of us... let us be completely integrated... regardless of each other..."
It was as if he had imagined that scene.
The elf opened his mouth. The salivary glands stimulated by desire had secreted a large amount of mucus, making the entire mouth sticky and moist. It also turned into a gray-brown tongue and stretched out, pulling up the threads of saliva and constantly licking the corners of the mouth.
